Answer:
Whitney can bring <u>6 friends.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason why is this:
Whitney is bringing 400 pounds of things plus <u>her own body weight! </u>
400 + 165 = 565 pounds
Now we add on Whitneys freinds which is <u>165 (their body weight) + the 10 pounds of gear which equals 175 pounds. So each friend would be 175 pounds total weight. </u>
175 x 6 = 1,050 pounds
If we add on Whitneys total weight thats:
565 + 1,050 = 1,615
<u>Adding on another friend would be 1,790 pounds which would be over the weight limit for the vehicle. </u>
Hence, Whitney can bring along 6 friends for her birthday.
<em>Hope this helped! :)</em>
Answer:
The Rockets' team has the better record.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The Blazers hockey team has played 12 games but they won only 7 out of the 12 games, so that means that they loss the other 5 games. So that makes the Blazers record 7 wins and 5 losses.
- The Rockets' team has played 8 games but they won only 5 out of the 8 games, so that means that they loss the other 3 games. So that makes the Rockets' record 5 wins and 3 losses.
- So, the Rockets' team has the better record because they loss less games than the Blazers team did.
Answer: 49
Step-by-step explanation:
From your question, I think you mean the largest number. The answer is given below.
Let the five consecutive odd numbers be:
a, a+2, a+4, a+6 and a+8.
Thee sum of the first and double the last is 139. This can be written as:
a + 2(a+8) = 139
a + 2a + 16 = 139
3a + 16 = 139
3a = 139 - 16
3a = 123
a = 123/3
a = 41
The first number = 41
The largest number = a+8 = 41 + 8 = 49.
